REVIEW

The VW Golf is the consummate small family car - understated classless looks, incredible interior and a quality level that belies its price. But times they are a-changing and with the death of the hybrid GTE the only truly eco-conscious option is now this - the all-electric e-Golf. There’s no internal combustion engine backup here, this is a fully electric Golf and is pretty much the perfect car for most who do limited mileages. So you have a 135bhp electric motor which given decent performance, minimal running costs and yet still have the amazing VW Golf to drive every day, with the best cabin in the sector and the cool yet understated looks. You’ll get about 130-150 miles range from a charge in the real world and you can charge to 80% in 30-40 minutes if you use a fast charger at a services.
